Their brunch is just as amazing as their regular menu.
Justin BDecember 10, 2013It seems blasphemous to not have ribs or pulled pork, but the pulled chicken is actually their best item.
Highly recommend the sausage. Love the peppery heat that it brings.
Brandy OrmondAugust 10, 2014It's just ok. If you are from the south, or have lived in the south, you will likely be disappointed. Also, $5 domestic bottles is a little steep.
Try dipping that pulled pork in the mac and cheese. So very tasty!
Mark DavisSeptember 20, 2014As a KC native, their sauce named after my hometown was an insult. The meat was bland and dry. The sides were average at best. It's all atmosphere and no flavor. Wouldn't eat here again if it was free
Andrea BostwickJanuary 28, 2012I recommend the Bourbon sidecar with the Bulliet Whiskey - straight up!
Shocking...here again and they are out of two things on the menu...good thing they can't even maintain their restaurant and they make a big delivery push!
Ordering a Weiss beer? They only serve Ball mason jars. Plan or adjust accordingly.
Regina NavejarJune 23, 2012Call ahead if you want rib tips or baby back ribs. When we went, they were all out. Nothing to rave about that's for sure. The brisket was dry, and the greens were off. Expensive! Go to Speedqueen!

We’re obsessed with the craft of smoked meat. Our certified humanely-raised meats are dry rubbed, slow smoked, and sauced by you. In some cases, we began smoking your meat yesterday to ensure you get the perfect quality barbecue.
We smoke our meats in small batches, all-day, every-day...

"Great atmosphere (good music selection, outdoor seating in great people watching corner). Food was excellent, including meat-satisfying dishes for carnivores and plenty of tasty vegetarian options."
